Frequently Asked Questions About Sour plum drink
What is sour plum drink made from?
Sour plum drink is usually made from tart, often unripe plums simmered in water and strained. Recipes vary: some use green plums and add sugar, while others keep the drink unsweetened.
How do you make sour plum drink at home?
To make sour plum drink, simmer washed sour plums in water until soft, then strain the liquid and chill it. Taste before sweetening, since the plums can vary considerably in tartness.
Is sour plum drink the same as prune juice?
No, sour plum drink is generally made with fresh, tart plums, often while they are still green. Prune juice is made from dried plums and has a sweeter, deeper flavor.
Why does sour plum drink taste so sour?
Sour plum drink tastes tart because it is commonly prepared with unripe or naturally acidic plums. Diluting it with water or adding a little sweetener can soften the sharpness.
Can you make sour plum drink without sugar?
Yes, sour plum drink can be made without added sugar. The result will be more sharply tart, so taste it after chilling and dilute it if you prefer a milder flavor.
Should sour plum drink be served hot or cold?
Sour plum drink is usually served cold. Chill it before pouring, and stir it if it has been standing, since fruit sediment can settle at the bottom.
How long does sour plum drink keep in the fridge?
Keep sour plum drink in a clean, covered container in the refrigerator and use it within a few days. Discard it if it develops an unusual smell, fizz, or flavor.
Can you freeze sour plum drink?
Yes, sour plum drink can be frozen in a freezer-safe container, leaving room for expansion. Thaw it in the refrigerator and stir well before serving, as the liquid may separate.
Does sour plum drink contain caffeine?
No, sour plum drink does not naturally contain caffeine. It is made from plums and water; caffeine would only be present if another caffeinated ingredient were added.
Does sour plum drink help with hydration?
Yes, sour plum drink contributes fluid, so it can be part of your daily hydration. It does not replace plain water, especially if the drink is sweetened or you are very thirsty.

What is Sour plum drink?
Sour plum drink is a tart, fruit-based drink made in Turkey, commonly by simmering sour plums in water and straining the liquid. Recipes vary: some add sugar to soften the sharp acidity, while others keep the flavour quite puckering.
It is usually served chilled, especially in warm weather, alongside meals or as a refreshing drink between them. Its light body and lively sourness make it a distinctive alternative to sweeter fruit drinks. At 38 calories per 100 g, it is relatively low in energy, though the amount of added sugar can change that. For a less sweet version, use less sugar and serve it over ice.
